Sad shopper
June 29, 2018

I ordered several products for gifts sense i gave out gifts one item has changed color, it was suppose to be a sterling silver ring, but changed color by week two... my daughter was very disappointed. I received clothing that was poor quality, I do not have time in my busy schedule to return items, so will be reluctant to order in the future.

Sellers that don't come through
June 28, 2018

Won 2 different tablets at a good price. Everyone gave good reviews and they were Birthday Gifts for my son and wife. And neither arrived. Yes I got refunded but never could get a good deal like I got on those. Tophatter should have let the seller for fill the order. I do not use this site any more for this reason. I believe sellers made where these packages would not clear.

Thank for sharing your experience, David.

I'm terribly sorry to hear about this issue. I know how disappointing and frustrating it can be to wait for an item you won only to never receive those items.

I reviewed your account, and as you mentioned I do see Order #: 59231456 was refunded due to invalid tracking information. Tophatter is a Marketplace that connects buyers with sellers (https://tophatter.com/terms), and because we are not the seller of the item, we offer Buyer Protection (https://tinyurl.com/yc6sdknh) which guarantees buyers will receive either the item they paid for or a full refund if for some reason the item you purchased is not delivered to the location provided at the time of payment.

I also checked on the other tablet Order 59231456 and I see the buyer of the item requested a refund for the item and Tophatter was able to accommodate the request.

We surely want all of your experiences to be great on Tophatter and I hope you change your mind and give Tophatter another try.

As a courtesy, in case you do decide to bid again, I have issued a $5.00 store credit to your account. This store credit will automatically apply to your next purchase of $6.00 or more and expires in 2 weeks.

Kind Regards,
Angelique

Thank you for sharing your experience, Richard.

I reviewed your account and I see that Order #: 64429001 is on the way back to the seller, thank you for returning the item. I was able to process a refund to Discover (6771).

It can take 1-3 business days for the refund to be reflected on your credit card statement or bank account. Refunds must always be issued back to their original payment source.

If you have any questions about your refund please contact your card-issuing bank by calling the toll-free number on the back of your card.

Mostly this stuff is junk. Some of it is ok. But be careful if you think you are getting some rare coin or great drone. It is usually just junk. Now they do deliver on time and give you time to think about your purchase, but if you think your getting a great deal remember you probably buy very low quality suff.
